Antimicrobial activity of extracts of the lichen Parmelia sulcata and its salazinic acid constituent.
The antimicrobial activity of the acetone, chloroform, diethyl ether, methanol, and petroleum ether extracts of the lichen Parmelia sulcata and its salazinic acid constituent have been screened against twenty eight food-borne bacteria and fungi. All of the extracts with the exception of the petroleum ether extract showed antimicrobial activity against Aeromonas hydrophila, Bacillus cereus, Baci...
متن کاملParmelia barrenoae, a new lichen species related to Parmelia sulcata (Parmeliaceae) based on molecular and morphological data
Parmelia barrenoae is described as new to science in the P. sulcata complex on the basis of morphological and molecular data. The new species is superficially similar to P. sulcata but differs in having simple rhizines whereas the other species of the complex have squarrose rhizines. Nuclear ITS rDNA and partial -tubulin gene sequences have been used as molecular markers. In the phylogenetic an...
متن کاملPhotoprotection in the lichen Parmelia sulcata: the origins of desiccation-induced fluorescence quenching.
Lichens, a symbiotic relationship between a fungus (mycobiont) and a photosynthetic green algae or cyanobacteria (photobiont), belong to an elite group of survivalist organisms termed resurrection species. When lichens are desiccated, they are photosynthetically inactive, but upon rehydration they can perform photosynthesis within seconds. Desiccation is correlated with both a loss of variable ...
متن کاملScreening of Antimicrobial Activity of Some Lichen Species in Vitro
Antimicrobial activity of the acetone-, methanoland aqueousextracts of the lichens Lecanora atra, L. muralis, Parmelia saxatilis, P. sulcata and Parmeliopsis ambigua was explored in vitro against to six species of bacteria and 10 species of fungi, by the disc-diffusion method and determination of the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) by the Broth tube Dilution method. The aqueous extracts ...
